Fantabulosa! (2017-2020)

Step into the unforgettable magic of Fantabulosa! - a fantastical pop-up world of imagination, storytelling and glitter where boundaries are forgotten and everyone and anyone can be whoever they want to be.

Fantabulosa! is an educational and entertaining children’s cabaret show, designed to teach children and adults alike the value of understanding, accepting and embracing the fantastic range of people’s identities and ways of presenting.

Join some of the UK’s leading drag artists for a queer-positive participatory family drag show encompassing interactive storytelling, lipsync, performance, dress-up, games and original songs. Fantabulosa! is open to anyone, young and old, who wants to experience the joys and freedom of self-expression. See fantabulosa.co.uk for more info.
